Future Talent Awards

I know that technically it’s still summer, but when we flip the calendar on September and the school year is on, that’s it… Back to reality!

The holiday is over, party trips to Europe are over, carefree nights by the beach – over! Now it’s time for big plans for the future, preparing homework, taking extra time in the lab and a bbq on the weekend, if the weather allows. But wait.. that doesn’t sound too bad actually. Another exciting year is on the way and I’m sure you all have your favourite classes you’re looking forward to return to.

Let’s get back to school in style! For the start of my column here I have a list of the coolest 5 backpacks I’ve spotted around. Practical and stylish!

There you go… you can thank me later 🙂
